[1.1.x] KSPX - Kerbal Stock Part eXpansion mod reposted v0.2.10.1 | 20/4/16

[mikeman7918]

Here is an idea, you should make 2.5 meter R.A.P.I.E.R Engines!

This mod is discontinued mate, it's simply being maintained.

Dear Mr. Chris,

Prease don't remove the KSPX LES piece now that it appears there will be a stock one in 0.24; the new stock one looks like ass in comparison.

xoxoxo,

I don't plkan on removing it

Hey guys, I've dropped a small update for 0.23.5!

Changelog:

v0.2.6[FEATURE] Added a decoupler module to the LES. Staging will decouple the part and activate the engine
[FEATURE] Added a CoM offset to the LES to thrust away from the ship.
[FEATURE] Slightly increased the LES's amount of fuel
[FEATURE] LES moved to Utility tab
[FEATURE] Changed the 1.25m ion engine's thrust to match the new TWR of the stock one

Downloads updated, cheers

[MonkeyLunch]

Thanks for the quick update Chris, I sorely miss these parts when they aren't in my list. Its appreciated.

[Gaius]

It should be noted that they changed the ElectricCharge/XenonGas ratio for the stock ion engine when they quadrupled its thrust. The PB-ION2 in the latest update here is still using the old ratio.

Well you're right, I totally didn't see that one. Will push an update shortly.

[stupid_chris]

Alright, that's done. Small bump-update to patch the ion engine quickly

Changelog:

v0.2.6.1
[FEATURE] Modified the ElectricCharge/XenonGas ratio of the ion engine to match the stock's

Cheers!

Is there any way to change the offset thrust for the ARM LES and this LES? I feel like the pod spinning the way it does now with ARM is a little annoying. I don't like the idea that it spins a full loop.

It's not offset thrust for this. I've set the COM offset on this one so that just as the LES burns out, the bottom of the pod points in the air flow (as a good LES should do). I can't do that with the ARM one since it's all done with engines.

[Sorcie]

Still using. Thank you!

Where are the candleators?

I've noticed another mod (surfacelights) using what appears to be very similar parts.

I'm not sure what you mean by candleators ._.

And surface lights has stockalike parts, but nothing from this.

The candleators we're never add because Claria never finished them. The surface lights mod lights are modeled after them

Thanks for keeping this mod alive! The large nuclear engine is a workhorse in my flight program.

Same!! The 3/4 orange tank is also my favorite for my second stages

[KvickFlygarn87]

The large nuclear engine seems to pass through the ground. Just sayin'.

What? :/ If it requires anything to modify with the model, I can't do much since I only have access to the configs.

I can't seem to find the part in my Stock tech tree that should go under utility. The Ion Engine and the Xenon Tank. I've searched everyone of the tiers and nothing. Had to go into the cfg files and make this change " TechRequired = start". Every other part in this mod is great and I've been able to find them.

[Master Tao]

Nanowinner,

You're right. The large Ion Engine and Xenon Tank require the "Large Probes" tech node, which no longer exists in the tech tree. I put mine in "Advanced Unmanned Tech" ("TechRequired = advUnmanned"), though it's a little odd since that doesn't require the "Ion Propulsion" node.

That's weird, I'll change that for next update.

I think this a great mod. However, the Launch Escape Tower HAS already been implemented, although in 0.23.5, which is the ARM update. I think you should remove that. I don't wanna get confused between KSPX's one and NasaMission's one.

They shouldn't remove the kspx LES, it looks a lot better than the nasa one and blends in well

I agree that the KSPX LES must remain - it has a much longer burn time and greater solid fuel reserve than the stock Kerbodyne LES, and is thus particularly vital for heavier escape pods.

[blackheart612]

Also, it has a unique design. Not like it looks like the NASA pack's one. The short and stubby look is awesome. You can always remove it if you don't want it
